No, not anymore since after I would forget who was who. ._. But I think the last time I actually nicknamed my Pokemon was back in Generation II and I. You know, when all Pokemon didn't have their own unique sprite and had to share (which was probably why I got confused in the first place...). I think once I named a Moltres "Chicken" because that's what it looked like. xD

I don't tend to nickname Legendaries, and when I don't, I just give them their names but with proper lettering (Giratina instead of GIRATINA). When I do, it usually follows a theme; Greek Gods, Elementals, Animals, etc.

I once named Suicune Slippers for idk what reason in Crystal o_+

Dan Lv. 56
Dan Lv. 58
Dan Lv. 58
Dan Lv. 59
Dan Lv. 61

I rarely nickname legendaries. I'm usually just glad to have caught them.

I did nickname a Raikou 'Pete' before. It was just a random name I thought of.

I always like naming my Articuno Artie, and that's about it for my legendary nicknames. I really like Chronos and Cosmos though. =D

I rarely nickname my legendaries. However, for the Lake Trio, I named Azelf 'Pearl', Mesprit 'Dia' and Uxie 'Platina' because I'm a PokeSpe fangirl. |D;

Yes, in Platinum I have.

Articuno is IcyUnicorn (yes, really xD)
Zapdos is ZappyPony (see where I am going with this? xD)
Moltres is FireySteed.

Yes, I was in a rather good mood when I caught all of them and Mesprit in under half an hour. xD

Mesprit is FluffTiger, just because. xD

And Giratina is Terry, because I wasn't very inventive that day. xD

I never really nickname my pokemon, takes too much time to name them all, legendaries included. Besides theres something about naming a legendary that bugs me, like it loses value in my eyes, never knew why.

Yes, I do. I name all the pokemon I plan on using, starters (I rarely use starter pokemon. XP), and legendaries. My nicknames are typically Japanese-based.

No I don't, I think legendaries shouldn't have nicknames cause it takes away from the awesomeness they are. the only exception to me would be if the nickname is awesome as well. I have an Arceus named God :)

I changed my DIALGA's name to Dialga. I hate having my game shouting my Pokemon's names, so I just un-capitalized the name. I gave all my other Pokemon nicknames though. I just didn't want to give my legendary one.

I don't really nickname any pokemon really, sometimes I uncapitalize their name, but other than that I don't nickname. I did get a Zapdos in a trade that was named Seth -_-
